Harry Dresden is the best at what he does. Well, technically, he’s the only at what he does. So when the Chicago P.D. has a case that transcends mortal creativity or capability, they come to him for answers. For the “everyday” world is actually full of strange and magical things — and most of them don’t play well with humans. That’s where Harry comes in. Takes a wizard to catch a — well, whatever.

There’s just one problem. Business, to put it mildly, stinks. So when the police bring him in to consult on a grisly double murder committed with black magic, Harry’s seeing dollar signs. But where there’s black magic, there’s a black mage behind it. And now that mage knows Harry’s name. And that’s when things start to get… interesting.

Magic. It can get a guy killed.

Harry Dresden is an amazing character! He is a Wizard, a really bad-ass wizard that sells his services like a private detective would. So, it's only fitting that Harry is also a consultant for the police department. When Harry is summoned to a murder scene and discovers two bodies with their hearts having exploded through their chests. Soon, a pattern emerges and it is up to Harry to track down the bad guy before they get to him next!

I loved all the paranormal elements. The story kept getting more and more outrageous which was fun as well. The support characters were even great. The thing I like most about Harry is how he relies on his experience over so many other factors. When Harry walks into a situation he has already planned out multiple scenarios in order to prepare himself. Wish I could have that much forethought!

Overall, a fantastic read and I will be continuing the series, for sure!
